What Is a Sonogram?

A sonogram is an image made during an ultrasound exam. It uses gentle sound waves to create pictures of the inside of your body. This test is noninvasive, meaning it does not break the skin and does not use radiation.

Sonograms are often used to:

  • Confirm or monitor pregnancy
  • Check for gynecologic concerns
  • Help detect certain medical conditions

Our team uses modern ultrasound technology to provide clear, accurate images while keeping you comfortable.

Benefits of a Sonogram

Sonograms play an essential role in women’s health and overall care.

Benefits include:

  • Clear images of internal organs
  • Monitoring your baby’s growth during pregnancy
  • Early detection of health concerns
  • No radiation exposure
  • Quick and painless exams

Why Might I Need a Sonogram?

We may recommend a sonogram for several reasons, including:

  • Pregnancy Care: To check your baby’s growth and development
  • Fertility Concerns: To look more closely at reproductive organs
  • Pain or Symptoms: If you’re experiencing abdominal pain or cramping

No. Sonograms are painless. Some exams may involve placing a device inside the body, but this is usually not uncomfortable. Our team will do everything possible to help you feel at ease.

It depends on the area being examined. You may be asked to remove clothing or jewelry. For abdominal or pelvic exams, we will provide a gown for you to wear during the appointment.
